Governments from Around the World Admit They Do It<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are many documented false flag attacks, where a government carries out a terror attack \u2026 and then falsely blames its enemy for political purposes.<\/p>\n

In the following 42 instances, officials in the government which carried out the attack (or seriously proposed an attack) admits <\/em>to it, either orally or in writing:<\/p>\n

(1) Japanese troops set off a small explosion on a train track in 1931, and falsely blamed it on China in order to justify an invasion of Manchuria. This is known as<\/a> the \u201cMukden Incident\u201d or the \u201cManchurian Incident\u201d. The Tokyo International Military Tribunal found<\/a>: \u201cSeveral of the participators in the plan, including Hashimoto [a high-ranking Japanese army officer], have on various occasions\u00a0<\/em>admitted<\/a> their part in the plot and have stated that the object of the \u2018Incident\u2019 was to afford an excuse for the occupation of Manchuria by the Kwantung Army \u2026.\u201d And see this<\/a>.<\/p>\n

(2) A major with the Nazi SS admitted<\/a> at the Nuremberg trials that \u2013 under orders from the chief of the Gestapo \u2013 he and some other Nazi operatives faked attacks on their own people and resources which they blamed on the Poles, to justify the invasion of Poland.<\/p>\n

(3) Nazi general Franz Halder also testified at the Nuremberg trials that Nazi leader Hermann Goering admitted<\/a> to setting fire to the German parliament building in 1933, and then falsely blaming the communists for the arson.<\/p>\n

(4) Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev admitted<\/a> in writing that the Soviet Union\u2019s Red Army shelled the Russian village of Mainila in 1939 \u2013 while blaming the attack on Finland \u2013 as a basis for launching the \u201cWinter War\u201d against Finland. Russian president Boris Yeltsin agreed<\/a> that Russia had been the aggressor in the Winter War.<\/p>\n

(5) The Russian Parliament, current Russian president Putin and former Soviet leader Gorbachev all admit<\/a> that Soviet leader Joseph Stalin ordered his secret police to execute 22,000 Polish army officers and civilians in 1940, and falsely blame it on the Nazis.<\/p>\n

(6) The British government admits<\/a> that \u2013 between 1946 and 1948 \u2013 it bombed 5 ships carrying Jews attempting to flee the Holocaust to seek safety in Palestine, set up a fake group called \u201cDefenders of Arab Palestine\u201d, and then had the psuedo-group falsely claim responsibility for the bombings (and seethis<\/a>, this<\/a> and this<\/a>).<\/p>\n

(7) Israel admits<\/a> that in 1954, an Israeli terrorist cell operating in Egypt planted bombs in several buildings, including U.S. diplomatic facilities, then left behind \u201cevidence\u201d implicating the Arabs as the culprits (one of the bombs detonated prematurely, allowing the Egyptians to identify the bombers, and several of the Israelis later confessed) (and see this<\/a> and this<\/a>).<\/p>\n

(8) The CIA admits<\/a> that it hired Iranians in the 1950\u2032s to pose as Communists and stage bombings in Iran in order to turn the country against its democratically-elected prime minister.<\/p>\n

(9) The Turkish Prime Minister admitted<\/a> that the Turkish government carried out the 1955 bombing on a Turkish consulate in Greece \u2013 also damaging the nearby birthplace of the founder of modern Turkey \u2013 and blamed it on Greece, for the purpose of inciting and justifying anti-Greek violence.<\/p>\n

(10) The British Prime Minister admitted<\/a> to his defense secretary that he and American president Dwight Eisenhower approved a plan in 1957 to carry out attacks in Syria and blame it on the Syrian government as a way to effect regime change.<\/p>\n

(11) The former Italian Prime Minister, an Italian judge, and the former head of Italian counterintelligence<\/a> admit that NATO, with the help of the Pentagon and CIA, carried out terror bombings in Italy and other European countries in the 1950s and blamed the communists, in order to rally people\u2019s support for their governments in Europe in their fight against communism<\/a>. As one participant in this formerly-secret program stated: \u201cYou had to attack civilians, people, women, children, innocent people, unknown people far removed from any political game. The reason was quite simple. They were supposed to force these people, the Italian public, to turn to the state to ask for greater security\u201d<\/a> (and see this<\/a>) (Italy and other European countries subject to the terror campaign had joined NATO before the bombings occurred). And watch this BBC special<\/a>. They also allegedly carried out terror attacks in France, Belgium, Denmark, Germany, Greece, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, the UK<\/a>, and other countries.<\/p>\n

(12) In 1960, American Senator George Smathers suggested<\/a> that the U.S. launch \u201ca false attack made on Guantanamo Bay which would give us the excuse of actually fomenting a fight which would then give us the excuse to go in and [overthrow Castro]\u201c.<\/p>\n

(13) Official State Department documents show that, in 1961, the head of the Joint Chiefs and other high-level officials discussed<\/a> blowing up a consulate in the Dominican Republic in order to justify an invasion of that country. The plans were not carried out, but they were all discussed as serious proposals.<\/p>\n

(14) As admitted by the U.S. government, recently declassified documents show that in 1962, the American Joint Chiefs of Staff signed off on a plan to blow up AMERICAN airplanes<\/strong><\/em> (using an elaborate plan involving the switching of airplanes), and also to commit terrorist acts on American soil<\/strong><\/em>, and then to blame it on the Cubans in order to justify an invasion of Cuba. See the following ABC news report<\/a>; the official documents<\/a>; and watch this interview <\/a>with the former Washington Investigative Producer for ABC\u2019s World News Tonight with Peter Jennings.<\/p>\n

(15) In 1963, the U.S. Department of Defense wrote a paper promoting<\/a> attacks on nations within the Organization of American States \u2013 such as Trinidad-Tobago or Jamaica \u2013 and then falsely blaming them on Cuba.<\/p>\n

(16) The U.S. Department of Defense even suggested<\/a> covertly paying a person in the Castro government to attack the United States: \u201cThe only area remaining for consideration then would be to bribe one of Castro\u2019s subordinate commanders to initiate an attack on Guantanamo.\u201d<\/p>\n

(17) The NSA admits<\/a> that it lied<\/a> about what really happened in the Gulf of Tonkin incident<\/a> in 1964 \u2026 manipulating data to make it look like North Vietnamese boats fired on a U.S. ship so as to create a false justification for the Vietnam war.<\/p>\n

(18) A U.S. Congressional committee admitted<\/a> that \u2013 as part of its \u201cCointelpro\u201d campaign \u2013 the FBI had used many provocateurs in the 1950s through 1970s to carry out violent acts and falsely blame them on political activists.<\/p>\n

(19) A top<\/a> Turkish general admitted<\/a> that Turkish forces burned down a mosque on Cyprus in the 1970s and blamed it on their enemy. He explained<\/a>: \u201cIn Special War, certain acts of sabotage are staged and blamed on the enemy<\/em> to increase public resistance. We did this on Cyprus; we even burnt down a mosque.\u201d In response to the surprised correspondent\u2019s incredulous look the general said, \u201cI am giving an example\u201d.<\/p>\n

(20) The German government admitted<\/a> (and see this<\/a>) that, in 1978, the German secret service detonated a bomb in the outer wall of a prison and planted \u201cescape tools\u201d on a prisoner \u2013 a member of the Red Army Faction \u2013 which the secret service wished to frame the bombing on.<\/p>\n

(21) A Mossad agent admits<\/a> that, in 1984, Mossad planted a radio transmitter in Gaddaffi\u2019s compound in Tripoli, Libya which broadcast fake terrorist transmissions recorded by Mossad, in order to frame Gaddaffi as a terrorist supporter. Ronald Reagan bombed Libya immediately thereafter.<\/p>\n

(22) The South African Truth and Reconciliation Council found<\/a> that, in 1989, the Civil Cooperation Bureau (a covert branch of the South African Defense Force) approached an explosives expert and asked him \u201cto participate in an operation aimed at discrediting the ANC [the African National Congress] by bombing the police vehicle of the investigating officer into the murder incident\u201d, thus framing the ANC for the bombing.<\/p>\n

(23) An Algerian diplomat and several officers in the Algerian army admit<\/a> that, in the 1990s, the Algerian army frequently massacred Algerian civilians and then blamed Islamic militants for the killings (and see this video<\/a>; and Agence France-Presse, 9\/27\/2002, French Court Dismisses Algerian Defamation Suit Against Author).<\/p>\n

(24) An Indonesian fact-finding team investigated violent riots which occurred in 1998, and determined that \u201celements of the military had been involved in the riots, some of which were deliberately provoked<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n

(25) Senior Russian Senior military and intelligence officers admit<\/a> that the KGB blew up Russian apartment buildings in 1999 and falsely blamed it on Chechens, in order to justify an invasion of Chechnya (and see this report<\/a> and this discussion<\/a>).<\/p>\n

(26) According to the Washington Post<\/a>, Indonesian police admit that the Indonesian military killed American teachers in Papua in 2002 and blamed the murders on a Papuan separatist group in order to get that group listed as a terrorist organization.<\/p>\n

(27) The well-respected former Indonesian president also admits<\/a> that the government probably had a role in the Bali bombings.<\/p>\n

(28) As reported by BBC<\/a>, the New York Times<\/a>, and Associated Press<\/a>, Macedonian officials admit that the government murdered 7 innocent immigrants in cold blood and pretended that they were Al Qaeda soldiers attempting to assassinate Macedonian police, in order to join the \u201cwar on terror\u201d.<\/p>\n

(29) Senior police officials in Genoa, Italy admitted<\/a> that \u2013 in July 2001, at the G8 summit in Genoa \u2013 planted two Molotov cocktails and faked the stabbing of a police officer, in order to justify aviolent crackdown<\/a> against protesters.<\/p>\n

(30) Although the FBI now admits that the 2001 anthrax attacks were carried out by one or more U.S. government scientists, a senior FBI official says that the FBI was actually told<\/em> to blame the Anthrax attacks on Al Qaeda by White House officials<\/a> (remember what the anthrax letters looked like<\/a>). Government officials also confirm that the white House tried to link the anthrax to Iraq<\/a> as a justification for regime change in that country.<\/p>\n

(31) Similarly, the U.S. falsely blamed Iraq<\/a> for playing a role in the 9\/11 attacks \u2013 as shown by amemo from the defense secretary<\/a> \u2013 as one of the main justifications<\/a> for launching the Iraq war. Even after the 9\/11 Commission admitted<\/a> that there was no connection, Dick Cheney said<\/a> that the evidence is \u201coverwhelming\u201d that al Qaeda had a relationship with Saddam Hussein\u2019s regime, that Cheney \u201cprobably\u201d had information unavailable to the Commission, and that the media was not \u2018doing their homework\u2019 in reporting such ties. Top U.S. government officials now admit<\/a> that the Iraq war was really launched for oil \u2026 not 9\/11 or weapons of mass destruction (despite previous \u201clone wolf\u201d claims, many U.S. government officials now say<\/a> that 9\/11 was state-sponsored terror; but Iraq was not<\/em> the state which backed the hijackers).<\/p>\n

(32) Former Department of Justice lawyer John Yoo suggested<\/a> in 2005 that the US should go on the offensive against al-Qaeda, having \u201cour intelligence agencies create a false terrorist organization. It could have its own websites, recruitment centers, training camps, and fundraising operations. It could launch fake terrorist operations and claim credit for real terrorist strikes, helping to sow confusion within al-Qaeda\u2019s ranks, causing operatives to doubt others\u2019 identities and to question the validity of communications.\u201d<\/p>\n

(33) United Press International reported<\/a> in June 2005:<\/p>\n

U.S. intelligence officers are reporting that some of the insurgents in Iraq are using recent-model Beretta 92 pistols, but the pistols seem to have had their serial numbers erased. The numbers do not appear to have been physically removed; the pistols seem to have come off a production line without any serial numbers. Analysts suggest the lack of serial numbers indicates that the weapons were intended for intelligence operations or terrorist cells with substantial government backing. Analysts speculate that these guns are probably from either Mossad or the CIA. Analysts speculate that agent provocateurs may be using the untraceable weapons even as U.S. authorities use insurgent attacks against civilians as evidence of the illegitimacy of the resistance.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

(34) Undercover Israeli soldiers admitted<\/a> in 2005 to throwing stones at other Israeli soldiers so they could blame it on Palestinians, as an excuse to crack down on peaceful protests by the Palestinians.<\/p>\n

(35) Quebec police admitted<\/a> that, in 2007, thugs carrying rocks to a peaceful protest were actually undercover Quebec police officers (and see this<\/a>).<\/p>\n

(36) At the G20 protests in London in 2009, a British member of parliament saw<\/a> plain clothes police officers attempting to incite the crowd to violence.<\/p>\n

(37) Egyptian politicians admitted<\/a> (and see this<\/a>) that government employees looted priceless museum artifacts in 2011 to try to discredit the protesters.<\/p>\n

(38) A Colombian army colonel has admitted<\/a> that his unit murdered 57 civilians, then dressed them in uniforms and claimed they were rebels killed in combat.<\/p>\n

(39) The highly-respected writer for the Telegraph Ambrose Evans-Pritchard says that the head of Saudi intelligence \u2013 Prince Bandar \u2013 recently admitted<\/a> that the Saudi government controls \u201cChechen\u201d terrorists.<\/p>\n

(40) High-level American sources admitted<\/a> that the Turkish government \u2013 a fellow NATO country \u2013 carried out the chemical weapons attacks blamed on the Syrian government; and high-ranking Turkish government admitted<\/a> on tape plans to carry out attacks and blame it on the Syrian government.<\/p>\n

(41) The former Ukrainian security chief admits<\/a> that the sniper attacks which started the Ukrainian coup were carried out in order to frame others.<\/p>\n

(42) Britain\u2019s spy agency has admitted<\/a> (and see this<\/a>) that it carries out \u201cdigital false flag\u201d attacks on targets, framing people<\/a> by writing offensive or unlawful material \u2026 and blaming it on the target.<\/p>\n

In addition, two-thirds of the City of Rome burned down in a huge fire on July 19, 64 A.D. The Roman people blamed the Emperor Nero for starting the fire. Some top Roman leaders \u2013 including the Roman consul Cassius Dio<\/a>, as well as historians like Suetonius<\/a> \u2013 agreed that Nero started the fire (based largely on the fact that the Roman Senate had just rejected Nero\u2019s application<\/a> to clear 300 acres in Rome so that he could build a palatial complex, and that the fire allowed him to build his complex). Regardless of who actually started the fire, Nero \u2013 in the face of public opinion accusing him of arson \u2013 falsely blamed theChristians<\/em><\/a> for starting the fire. He then rounded up and brutally tortured and murdered scores of Christians<\/a> for something they likely didn\u2019t do.<\/p>\n

We didn\u2019t include this in the list above, because \u2013 if Nero did start the fire on purpose \u2013 he did it for hisown<\/i> reasons (to build his palatial complex), and not for geopolitical reasons benefiting his nation.<\/p>\n

So Common \u2026 There\u2019s a Name for It<\/h3>\n

The use of the bully\u2019s trick is so common that it was given a name hundreds of years ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cFalse flag terrorism\u201d is defined as a government attacking its own people, then blaming others in order to justify going to war against the people it blames. Or as Wikipedia defines it<\/a>:<\/p>\n

False flag operations are covert operations conducted by governments, corporations, or other organizations, which are designed to appear as if they are being carried out by other entities. The name is derived from the military concept of flying false colors; that is, flying the flag of a country other than one\u2019s own. False flag operations are not limited to war and counter-insurgency operations, and have been used in peace-time; for example, during Italy\u2019s strategy of tension.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The term comes from the old days of wooden ships, when one ship would hang the flag of its enemy before attacking another ship. Because the enemy\u2019s flag, instead of the flag of the real country of the attacking ship, was hung, it was called a \u201cfalse flag\u201d attack.<\/p>\n

Indeed, this concept is so well-accepted that rules of engagement for naval<\/a>, air<\/a> and land<\/a> warfare all prohibit false flag attacks.<\/p>\n

Leaders Throughout History Have Acknowledged False Flags<\/h3>\n

Leaders throughout history have acknowledged the danger of false flags:<\/p>\n

\u201cA history of false flag attacks used to manipulate the minds of the people! \u201cIn individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations, and epochs it is the rule.\u201d
\n\u2015 Friedrich Nietzsche<\/p>\n

\u201cTerrorism is the best political weapon for nothing drives people harder than a fear of sudden death\u201d.
\n\u2013 Adolph Hitler<\/p>\n

\u201cWhy of course the people don\u2019t want war \u2026 But after all it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship \u2026 Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.\u201d
\n\u2013 Hermann Goering, Nazi leader.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe easiest way to gain control of a population is to carry out acts of terror. [The public] will clamor for such laws if their personal security is threatened\u201d.
\n\u2013 Josef Stalin<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
